Is this because of the state of the vehicles mechanically i wonder , the work they have done previously is more interurban and what Rock Ferry wanted out of them is more urbanised work with stop and starting more often which is always going to lead to more breakdowns if they have been used to high speed running .

It's on the 'Stagecoach Enthusiasts' one, the plan for 15739-51 to head up here was apparently cancelled 6 weeks ago.....

It's starting to turn into a bit a saga this,will they/won't they.RF should just get ordinary

new deckers like Gillmoss do,find it hard to believe that damage to seats only applies

to RF only.
